I saw lots of ppl flip the orange screen below in the slot behind the shifter and do what you want. A shop should be able to do that np.

As for changing your gauges and the actual orange screen to something else, blue/white. You do need to solder the led's on, also the factory screen has an orange lining in it along with orange lighting, when changing those lights you lose the crispness of lighting the lining provided. There is a guy out of Rhode Island that did my work for me, back in '07ish. Not sure if he's still in the game but you can search the 6th gen forum/site for info.

Overall I was happy but paid ALOT at the time as it was more of the craze then. You will see hot spots on the lighting too. Depending if you can get someone to do a good job at a decent price it's worth it, otherwise I'd put your money towards something else.

Sorry no pics of the interior work to show. Good luck.

Yes, it can be done. And it should not be hard. I have moved my stereo around to my liking before. Light are fairly easy too.
